This paper presents a comprehensive literature review of perforate, wash, and cement techniques that compares new methods with traditional ones and uses field cases and computational fluid dynamics to find the most cost- and time-effective practices without sacrificing safety.
This paper describes the use of coiled tubing in a pilot project for carbon dioxide injection, enabling evaluation of the conversion of an existing oil field for CCS purposes and derisking storage-development uncertainties before having to cease hydrocarbon production.
This paper describes a case history in the UAE in which the cleanout of scale contaminated with naturally occurring radioactive material was conducted successfully.
-
In this paper, a comparison is presented of the range of production outcomes for Clair Phase 1 and Clair Ridge, including the potential downsides of relying on natural fractures.
-
Fracture monitoring to optimize fluid volumes and designs remains a critical area of development. Research is ongoing with the focus on combining different monitoring technologies including tracers, fiber optics, downhole cameras, and microseismic monitoring.
-
This paper presents a novel mathematical model for design and evaluation of fluoroboric acid treatments that takes into account the chemical kinetics and equilibrium aspects of important reactions and fluid flow inside the reservoir rock.
-
When there are two ways to measure something, and they offer significantly different numbers, which do you use?
-
The second phase of the project will analyze data gathered in Phase 1, with the goal of improving riser, wellhead, and conductor fatigue estimates.
-
SponsoredThis Q&A highlights the benefits of AI and ML to automate work flows and analyze data at a much faster rate—within minutes. These capabilities deliver a fit-for-basin approach designed specifically for US-centric work flows.
-
This paper describes an intelligent completion design installed in two deepwater wells with dual-zone stack-pack sand-control lower completions and the installation of an intermediate string to isolate the reservoir in each zone.
-
The mid-sized completions service provider is betting that automation will boost the competitiveness of natural gas-powered pumps.
-
Geologists have identified a formation with a world-changing potential for carbon dioxide storage, but some engineering is required.
-
Service company Liberty Energy has announced the formation of Liberty Power Innovations which will specialize in compressed natural gas.
